SAD 46 spending plan to cut teaching jobs

DEXTER – SAD 46 directors voted 9-1 Wednesday to send a proposed $10.9 million budget to voters for adoption at a district vote at 6 p.m. Thursday, June 5, at Dexter Regional High School.

A public meeting on the spending plan will be held at 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 27, at the high school.

The proposed spending plan would eliminate 61/2 special education technicians, an elementary teacher, a business education teacher and a high school social worker. It would reduce two high school teaching positions in English and science to half-time.

If adopted, the budget would require the same assessment total as last year.
